This is actually a good movie, unlike many a schlocky sci-fi that was made around the same time. It has a good storyline, suspense, well-drawn characters and good production values for the time.
The Triffids themselves are a bit cheesy, but we can't really blame them for not having CGI.
If you like old sci-fi's you'll probably like this one.
